New Inserters

Stilt Inserter (Recipe: Inserter + 4 * Iron Rod): Works like a regular inserter, but you can walk through it like lights and power poles. Angle Inserter: Takes stuff from one direction, outputs it 90 desgrees to the left or right (obviously, you need two versions: clockwise and counterclockwise) Che...

Re: Any production spreadsheet

I second this notion. I'd really like to see some hard numbers on things, like how much water can one pump supply? How much can one boiler heat? How long does one unit of steal take to forge?

  • A steam engine uses up water proportional to demand, up to Y l/s at full demand.
  • A boiler heats up to Z Β°l/s of water (i.e. it can heat Z l/s by 1 degree, or 1 l/s by Z degrees)
Can anyone tell me what X, Y, and Z are?

How does steam work?

I can't figure out how the water/steam system works. Apparently, the boilers heat up the water, and the engines use up the heated water? But how do i tell how much 100-degree water is in a pipe? And does this mean that adding more boilers once the water is at 100 doesn't help? I'm trying to figure o...

[v2.7, Windows, 64-bit] Random delays in input

Something keeps going wrong with the way the game registers input. It seems to randomly be delayed by up to half a second, and other times ignored. So, if I tap 'D' to move right, any one of the following could happen: No response Take one step to the right Take one step to the right after a 0.5-2 s...
